Whale Watching Húsavík Iceland

With Gentle Giants you can experience exciting seafaring adventures. We are located in the famous whale watching town Húsavík, by Skjálfandi bay, on the northern coast of Iceland. With a 98% success rate of spotting whales, our aim is to raise general awareness and interest in whales and their habitat. We focus on quality rather than quantity, and that is why we can offer you outstanding personal service. We are proud of our background with more than 150 years of family history in the bay. Welcome to experience unforgettable adventures with us at Gentle Giants.
